Re: [rdiff-backup-users] Repair repository

Hello Dominic,

I did not run "--check-destination-dir" right after deleting the "current_mirror". I try to run it after making a backup.

This morning I had:
current_mirror.2015-08-24T01:12:31-04:00.data
current_mirror.2015-09-14T19:37:48-04:00.data

The last successful backup seams to be "2015-08-24T01:12:31-04:00".
I delete "current_mirror.2015-09-14T19:37:48-04:00.data". Then I ran "rdiff-backup --check-destination-dir":

$ rdiff-backup --check-destination-dir ~/ikus060-rdiff/
Fatal Error: Destination dir /home/ikus060/ikus060-rdiff does not need checking

I believe something is wrong...

BTW, I see alot of files related to "2015-09-14T19:37:48-04:00" in rdiff-backup-data: file_statistics, increments, mirror_metadata. I also see some files related to "2015-09-14T19:00:02-04:00". Should I delete all of them ? I know the last successfule backup is "2015-08-24".

After deleting the current_mirror file did you then run rdiff-backup with --check-destination-dir? This performs the actual regression to the previous, hopefully consistent, backup.

Hello,

One of my backup repository seams to be mess up alot. I think the backup have been interrupted multiple time. I do have a very long history for this backup and I don't want to lose it.

First, I encounter "regressing destination" error. So as usual, I've delete the current_mirror. But even then, the backup refused to start with the following exception:

Do you have some good approach to repair a repository ? May I revert the backup destination to a stable point ?
